Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin essential for maintaining healthy vision, a strong immune system, and proper functioning of the heart, lungs, and kidneys. It also supports skin health and cell growth. There are two main types: preformed vitamin A (from animal sources) and provitamin A carotenoids (from plant sources like carrots and spinach). A deficiency can lead to vision problems, weakened immunity, and skin issues.
Here’s a list of Vitamin A–rich foods:
- Carrots
